Lime Vinaigrette
Report
Lime Vinaigrette is a tangy salad dressing combining white wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, garlic, oregano, and freshly ground black pepper emulsified with olive oil and brightened by fresh lime juice. This dressing offers a balanced, zesty citrus flavor that complements many greens or vegetable salads.
Description
This vinaigrette starts by whisking together white wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Olive oil is then slowly incorporated while whisking continuously to create a smooth emulsion. Finally, fresh lime juice adds a bright, citrus note that lightens the dressing.
The recipe stresses using high-quality oil and vinegar to achieve the best flavor from its simple ingredients. Emulsifying thoroughly ensures the dressing remains well combined rather than separating. Tasting throughout the process allows adjustment of seasoning for desired balance.
